Gold Crest Samurai Kabuto with Ohitsu Base & Screen – by Itoku

Created by artisan Itoku, this kabuto showcases refined craftsmanship rooted in the traditional Boys’ Festival aesthetic. The helmet is accented with intricate gold-plated fittings and finished with a light silk cord in pale green, harmonizing with the natural wood tone of its display base. Each detail reflects a balance of elegance and strength, true to the legacy of Japanese armor.

The bold gold crest (maedate) rises in twin arcs, symbolizing courage and vitality, while the chrysanthemum and floral motifs evoke protection and prosperity for the household. The folding wooden screen carved with sakura blossoms frames the helmet, enhancing its presence with a subtle seasonal touch. The coordinated bow, arrow, and sword ornaments complete the dignified arrangement.

The kabuto comes pre-assembled, with only minor adjustments required for display. The wooden ohitsu storage box doubles as the display base, ensuring both practicality and authenticity. Compact in size, it is ideal for celebrating Kodomo no Hi, enhancing a modern interior, or serving as a distinguished collectible.
